State-of-the-art microscope after £150k grant

-

The Morrisons Foundation has awarded Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity a £150,000 grant to fund a state-of-the-art surgical microscope, the first of its kind in a children’s hospital in Scotland. The Foundation, which uses funds raised by the 5p plastic carrier bag charge to support charity projects, learned of the charity’s appeal for funding from 13-year-old schoolgirl Jenny Cook when she asked her local Morrisons to help with a car boot sale. Jenny, a Young Ambassador for the charity suffers from the chronic bowel disease ulcerative colitis.
